The aim of this thesis is to analyse the historical and literary context of the period of the Second World War and, in particular, some key examples of works in the Italian and American contexts. The impact of this global conflict led to several radical changes in literature, themes developed and currents of thought in both Italy and the United States. We will also consider how the gloomy atmosphere typical of the immediate post-war literary period has been transmitted to the present day through the hands of some of the most influential writers of the time.
Questa tesi di laurea ha come obiettivo l’analisi del contesto storico e letterario relativo al periodo della Seconda guerra mondiale, e nello specifico, alcuni esempi chiave di opere in contesto italiano e statunitense. L’impronta di questo conflitto globale ha portato a diversi cambiamenti radicali nella letteratura, nei temi sviluppati e nelle correnti di pensiero, sia in Italia che negli Stati Uniti. Considereremo inoltre come la mano di alcuni degli autori più influenti del periodo ha contribuito alla trasmissione, fino ai giorni nostri, di questa cupa atmosfera tipica dell’immediato dopoguerra letterario.

Abstract
The aim of this thesis is to analyse the historical and literary context of the period of the Second World War and, in particular, some key examples of works in the Italian and American contexts. The impact of this global conflict led to several radical changes in literature, themes developed and currents of thought in both Italy and the United States. We will also consider how the gloomy atmosphere typical of the immediate post-war literary period has been transmitted to the present day through the hands of some of the most influential writers of the time.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
